Perhaps when you listen to this song, you will feel that you are hearing something out of the ordinary. And I am not referring specifically to heavy metal, but rather to the nuances and significant influences of Middle Eastern music. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the Tunisian band Myrath, a group that, in my opinion, has arrived to offer a different alternative to those who are used to, or perhaps bored of, always listening to the same musical style. These guys bring us some great heavy metal accompanied by traditional music from their country; as you know, they live in North Africa, very close to the Sahara Desert.
I wanted to bring this song because it's my favorite from the band. I think it has a little bit of everything: technical details, a great rhythm, it's catchy, and, of course, it has those Arabic sounds that transport us to video games or movies set in the desert. I think that makes it quite interesting. I think one of the beautiful things about music is that it allows us to connect with other cultures when bands like this show us part of their musical tradition embedded in a style that we already like. They have many other songs in which their culture is deeply rooted. I really recommend that if you like rock, even just a little, you check out Myrath's other songs. I'm sure you'll like them.
Tal vez, cuando escuches esta canción, sentirás que estás oyendo algo fuera de lo normal. Y no me refiero precisamente al heavy metal, sino a los matices y grandes influencias de la música del Medio Oriente. Señoras y señores, les presento a la banda tunecina Myrath, una agrupación que, desde mi punto de vista, llegó para ofrecer una alternativa distinta a quienes están acostumbrados, o quizá aburridos de escuchar siempre el mismo ambiente musical. Estos chicos vienen con un buen heavy metal acompañado de música tradicional de su país; como bien saben, ellos viven al norte de África, muy cerca del desierto del Sahara.
Quise traer esta canción porque es la que más me gusta de la banda. Creo que tiene de todo un poco: detalles técnicos, muy buen ritmo, es pegajosa y, por supuesto, cuenta con esos sonidos árabes que nos transportan a ambientes de videojuegos o películas que se desarrollan en el desierto. Creo que eso la hace bastante interesante. Pienso que algo hermoso de la música es que nos permite conectar con otras culturas cuando bandas como esta nos muestran parte de su tradición musical incrustada en un estilo que ya nos gusta. Ellos tienen muchas otras canciones en las cuales su cultura está muy arraigada. De verdad les recomiendo que, si les gusta, aunque sea un poco el rock, indaguen sobre los otros temas de Myrath. Estoy seguro de que les van a gustar.
Lyrics
In your eye
Melt away overnight
Carve your life
Sharpened knife
Like a thrill
In a fight
It's the moment to blow our minds
Faith is blind
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Your victory will live forever
Keep fighting for the riot inside
Believe and carry on
Jump on the bandwagon
History goes on
Believe and carry on
Bird of night
Broken chains
There's no time to deny
Past is gone
The future's bright
Throw away
Yesterday
Create your brand new name
There's no shame
So light the flame
You know you're gonna win or you'll learn
Your victory will live forever
Keep fighting for the riot inside
Believe and carry on
Jump on the bandwagon
History goes on
Believe and carry on (if you believe then you can reach anything you want)
mirath, mirath, nurik satie waghali
mirath, mirath, nurik satie waghali
mirath, mirath, nurik satie waghali
mirath, mirath, nurik satie waghali
mirath, mirath, nurik satie waghali
mirath, mirath, nurik satie waghali
mirath, mirath, nurik satie waghali
mirath, mirath, nurik satie waghali
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Your victory will live forever
Keep fighting for the riot inside
Believe and carry on (you'll win or you'll learn)
Jump on the bandwagon (the candle will be burnt)
History goes on (you'll win or you'll learn)
Believe and carry on
To record this bass cover I downloaded the song from the band's official Youtube channel, then, I used the Moises application to remove the original bass line, that way I could record a completely clean line. I applied a couple of effects to give prominence to the bass since it is obviously the central element in my performances, but I tried not to overdo it in modifying the original sound previously recorded. I hope my presentation this week is to everyone's liking, I really like to humbly share my bass covers with the community, best regards!
Para grabar éste cover de bajo descargué la canción del canal oficial de Youtube de la banda, luego, usé la aplicación Moises para eliminar la línea de bajo original, de esa forma pude grabar una línea completamente limpia. Apliqué un par de efectos para dar protagonismo al bajo ya que evidentemente es el elemento central en mis presentaciones, pero traté de no exagerar en modificar el sonido original previamente grabado. Espero que mi presentación de ésta semana sea del agrado de todos, de verdad me gusta compartir humildemente mis covers de bajo con la comunidad. ¡Un fuerte abrazo!
